Jimmy Butler wants to help the Sixers compete for an NBA title

Sitting on a stage in a black zip-up hoodie and sweatpants at the 76ers practice facility in Camden, Jimmy Butler was the main event of an introductory press conference.

The past few days have moved fast for Butler since the Sixers acquired him and Justin Patton on Saturday in a trade that sent Dario Saric, Robert Covington, Jerryd Bayless and a second-round pick to Minnesota.

General manager Elton Brand, owner Josh Harris, and Patton were all dressed for the occasion, but Butler's suit was in a bag that didn't arrive in Philadelphia before he had to take the stage.
